Don’t bash your head against the wall

By doctorjay8

There is the story of the old guy who walks into the doctor’s office with a bleeding head….

I’ll write about that at another time.  It’s something about his youth and virginity (actually I have a similar story myself but that again for another day)….

The point is that if you have challenges — call them metaphorically as walls – you can try to climb to the other side of the wall (if you have a ladder or are a great climber) or you can try to walk around or typically one keeps repeating the same thing (in programming anyway – and as they sau madness is trying the exact same thing and expecting a different result) which is tantamount to keep running into that wall.

I just did that as I’m trying to recover from Monday’s great faux pas when I deleted my MySQL database on which about 18 blogs were running.  So I’m working extra fast (which is a great way to make even more mistakes).  A certain operation was not working and I kept repeating it imagining that exactly at the wrong moment I had Internet connection problems….

Oh well – eventually I decided to declare victory and move onto something else.  Now I’m about to go to the gym to fill up on endorphins and relax so I can come back re-energized and continue.

In the mean while I’m putting all the links for the spiders.  But fellow human beings go to some of these sites and look and leave me comments here….
